“…Research on job characteristics related to adaptive performance has discussed autonomy and available resources, and employees’ efforts to successfully perform their jobs in their organizations (Ghitulescu, 2013; Goštautaitė & Bučiūnienė, 2015; Sherehiy & Karwowski, 2014). Job-related factors could relate to adaptive performance differently according to the industry and organizational type.…”

The purpose of this article is to critically review current studies on employees’ adaptive performance and to integrate the findings to provide insights on how to develop employees’ adaptability. It also aims to identify gaps in the research to guide future studies on adaptive performance in the field of human resource development. By reviewing 34 empirical studies on adaptive performance published between 1999 and 2016, we identified 22 antecedents of adaptive performance at the individual (nine), job (six), group (three), and organizational (four) levels. Our analyses reveal that a significant amount of research has focused more on individual characteristics than on other aspects affecting employees’ high adaptive performance. Discussion, implications, and recommendations for future research are elaborated.

ABSTRACT. Today's shortage of qualified workers due to population aging and emigration requires putting more emphasis on older employees and also developing specific measures so that to increase their work engagement. However, employers prefer to hire younger individuals who are assumed to be flexible, and more acquainted with new information technologies. Meanwhile, older employees are seen as less engaged in work, less familiar with lifelong learning and also coping with deteriorating health issues. This paper focuses on older employees working in science, education and public organizations of Lithuania. Being grounded on the prevailing theories in this regard, the paper aims to investigate employee-and work-related factors around this problem. The data obtained allows us confirm that work scheduling autonomy, decision-making autonomy, managerial orientation, career achievement, dedication to work, feedback from work influence work engagement of older employees. The study let us develop insights for managers and recommendations for future investigations in the same field. JEL Classification: M10, M12

“…From the viewpoint of employers, individual productivity of their employees plays a vital role in their assessment. Unfortunately, higher age often gets associated with a decline in individual productivity (Goštautaitė & Bučiūnienė, 2015). Having lower productivity compared to younger aged individuals is one of the most common age-biases, senior-aged employees have to face in the workplace.…”
